    Sooner or later ,the racing grey-hound competing at America's greyhoundtracks, is retired after several years in compe-tition.

    These fine animals now have an op-portunity to become your pet if certain condi-tions are met.

    This program, sponsored by mostgreyhound kennel clubs (dog tracks) andsanctioned by the Greyhound Racing Asso-ciation, has started to attract considerable in-terest in Florida.

    Greyhounds are friendly, affection-ate dogs who thrive on affection and attentionfrom humans.

    Dogs put up for adoption by theGreyhound Pets of America are usually 2-5years old and adapt vcry well in a ncw homeenvironment.

    Some of the qualitics of thcsc dogsare: eager to pleasc, quiet, clean, gentlc, goodnatured with children, highly intelligent, 26-29inches tall at the shoulder, 50-80 pounds, af-fectionate, and fricndly by nature.

    They comc in a variety of colors:white, black, brown, or a combination thcrcof,red brindle, blue brindle, fawn tan, or grey..

    With proper care, thcse animals havc

    An editorial by Chris Kehl

    a life expectancy of 12 years. Theyrequirenolarge amount of exercise. A long walk 3-4times a week is sufficient.

    Housebreaking is not a problem withgreyhounds because they keep their livingquarters clean. Frequentwalks will immediatelyacquaint them with the outside where they canrelieve themselves.

    The greyhound's history dates backsome 4,000 years. Cleopatra had greyhounds.

    Greyhounds are trained carefully toenter the sporr of racing. They are gamecompetitors who are completely on their ownonce the gate opens at the starting position.

    There are several distances that areprogrammed at all greyhound tracks. The 3/16mile, 5/16 mile, also known as sprints becauseof the shorr distances, the 3/8 mile, 7/16 mara-thon, and on some tracks, a super marathon thatinvolves 8 turns on the track.

    These animals will run as hard and asfast as thcy can in an effort to win a race.

    I have petted many of them afterfinishing a race while they were cooling downin the kennel area. They are an exceptionallygentle breed.

    Anyone interested in adopting a re-tired greyhound may obtain information bycalling 800-366-1472, Greyhound Pets ofAmerica. Wallis and Emily Griffm have all thedetails.
